New Cosplays! Summer 2025 Convention Tour!

I can’t believe we’re already in June because that means my summer convention tour is officially right around the corner! 😱

I’ve been very busy working behind the scenes and haven't posted much, but I hope to change that with events ramping up!

Before I dive in my travel plans, I wanted to let you know that I have added a few new cosplay galleries! Be sure to click on each to see a bunch of photos of the costumes and read about how I made them!

Fugue - Honkai: Star Rail

Psylocke - Marvel Rivals

Yanagi - Zenless Zone Zero

Now let's look at where I'll be zooming to!

This summer, I’ will travel across four cities in three countries before I finally get to visit my family in China after way too many years apart. It’s going to be a whirlwind of cosplay, panels, travel, and community... and I can’t wait to see some of you at these events!

📍 First up: Tokyo Night Festival in Houston, TX

🗓 June 14 – 15 I’m kicking off the tour in Texas at Tokyo X, a 2 day event celebrating Japanese culture, anime, and of course, cosplay! This will be my very first time at this event, and I will be judging their fully capped cosplay contest and do multiple panels and meet & greets!

📍 Next stop: Cosplay America in Raleigh, NC

🗓 June 20 – 22 This is a super special convention that I've always wanted to visit! holds a special place in my heart! Cosplay America is a learning focused cosplay convention that offers workshops and panels on a diverse range of subjects and I will be doing four panels for them over the weekend, as well as partaking in the Cosplay Gala on Saturday night!

📍 Then: Comic Con Colombia in Bogotá

🗓 June 27 – 30 I’m excited to be heading to South America this year as a Guest of Comic Con Colombia! This is a huge show, and I’ve heard incredible things about the cosplay community in Colombia. This is my first visit to the country and I'm ready to meet everybody!

📍 After that: Comic Con Astana in Kazakhstan

🗓 July 10 – 13 I love traveling to new destinations for cosplay and Kazakhstan is definitely a place I have always wanted to visit but never had the chance to before. Comic Con Astana is bringing together international guests and local talent for a huge 4-day event, and I can’t wait to experience it! I will be judging the cosplay contest and doing meet & greets on all days, so please come say hi If you're attending!

After Astana... I’m going to China to visit family ❤️! It's really hard for me to live so far away from my family and I'm way overdue for a visit. I’m really looking forward to spending some quiet time with my loved ones after such a packed travel schedule.

So yes… there’s a lot happening between now and August, but I’m staying focused, packing slowly, and trying to get ahead on costume maintenance and wig detangling lol. You'll be able to keep up with all my travels and sights on social media, especially Instagram!

Wish me luck, and I hope to see you on tour this summer! 🌟~ Yaya
